Wow.. well that stinks.. At least you got the majority of the meat..

From what I have been told...nothing like a live lined striper for shark bait.

Thats how the one i had on the umbrella rig back in the previous post about dec when i was with my wife.,,

In late fall/early winter I would suspect medium or small giant tuna as they come through inshore every year. Once I had the opportunity to witness them actively feeding on 30-34" striped bass. Was a wild sight. Was wondering what was doing it at first when I was coming back to the boat with striper heads, then they came crashing out of the water. It was unreal with bass spraying out of the water like bunker.

Joe, I witnessed the same two years ago in the late fall right off LBI. thought it was shark at first from a distance but then saw the tuna crashing the top of the water

At least we know the stripers are still around!

good point Sy-Co. saw bunker out by the reef all weeknd, should tried to snag em. too busy flukin

thats friggin awesome, well not for the striper, poor lil guy!

There always a bigger fish....

Hmmmm....it looks like a SHORT
